Simone Biles may dazzle the world with her record-breaking routines and unmatched power on the gymnastics floor, but behind every gravity-defying flip is a deeply personal story of love, loyalty, and quiet strength. As the Olympic champion continues to chase perfection, she’s opening up about the people who keep her grounded. Even when the spotlight gets heavy. At the heart of that support system? Her husband, NFL player Jonathan Owens, who never misses a moment to lift her up, whether she’s atop the podium or picking herself up after a fall.
Fans saw that devotion on full display in Paris when Biles slipped off the beam during finals. A rare misstep for the GOAT. Watching from afar, Owens wasted no time in sending her a message of reassurance. “I’m still proud of her for all the work she’s done.” His words, simple but sincere. It echoed the kind of love that shows up even in silence. Her parents, too, have been a constant presence. Beaming with pride they have been quiet strength forming the emotional backbone of Simone’s unstoppable journey.
Simone Biles took to Instagram recently, shining a spotlight on the people who’ve carried her through every twist, turn, and tumble of her journey. “Click the link in @netflixqueue’s bio for the full interview from Queue Issue 20,” she wrote, offering fans a closer look at the heartbeat behind her Olympic story. “I am really grateful for my community, and I couldn’t have done it without them. You know your parents love you and wish you luck before the meeting. But watching them, and my husband, be vulnerable because they’re so nervous about the competitions, I just think it shines a different light on their love…” In those few words, Biles peeled back the curtain on a dynamic the world rarely gets to see. Her journey has always been about more than medals. It’s about resilience, family, and redemption.
The post wasn’t just a promo. It was a love letter to the ones who have lifted her when gravity tried to bring her down. At just six years old, Simone was taken in by her grandparents, Nellie and Ronald Biles, after time spent in foster care. They weren’t just guardians. They became her anchors. From cheering in the stands in Paris as Simone became the oldest American to ever win the Olympic all-around title. To being her emotional foundation when she had nothing to cling to but hope, Nellie and Ronald’s love has been a constant. “Even though you hear it every day, it just sounds different when it’s on film.” That vulnerability, caught on camera, gave Biles a fresh perspective on the people who’ve always believed in her.
And that includes Jonathan Owens, who doesn’t just celebrate her wins with social media shoutouts. Though he’s had plenty of those lately, like his proud post after Simone won the 2025 Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year Award, “And another one so proud to call you my wife.” Even when football obligations keep him away from the arena, he makes sure his presence is felt. Whether it’s his reposts, his messages, or that ever-present Team Simone shirt, Owens’ love is loud. And in revealing her behind-the-scenes truth, Biles reminds us that even the strongest need a circle that holds them up when the lights go out.
